Art Vandelay Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I don't know why Netflix have tried to bury this, it's great. Classic Ryan Murphy. I'm never sure if he ruined Easy Lover for me or made it better though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

makkuwata Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 The algorithm said it was a 99% match for me. Makes it hard to avoid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was this Guardian article that said considering Ryan Murphy was Netflix's big television producer acquisition they'd not given out review copies for this and hadn't bothered to advertise it. It's difficult to tell I guess how much they've promoted in the app though as we'll all get a different dashboard. I'll watch any old true crime toss though so when something actually good came along they were bound to feature it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZOK Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 It’s been front and centre of the interface for us for ages…mind you, I only twigged about it through this thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just put Netflix on and go from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewylegs Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Having read that article as well, it's a lot of bullshit. Why can't a series be grim, nasty and dark? It doesn't glamorise anything at all. It's uncomfortable watching, and really it should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZOK Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Yeah, that article is rubbish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wev Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I finished it the other night, most of it was, imo, fairly standard for this sort of thing apart from the episode about Tony, that was utterly heart wrenching 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassidy Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Fucking Tony’s episode was heartbreaking. There’s a marked tonal shift I think at the back half of the season and it elevates it. One of Murphys better series. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thought it was interesting it was considered to be a high profile show they weren’t keen on pushing. This is head and shoulders above 99% of the tripe they churn out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarhkFox Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 Watched the first two episodes. It's really good but really messed up. I think it gave me nightmares. I usually love stuff like this but it's quite hard to watch at times (was very angry with how the police dealt with the situation at the end of episode 2). I'm assuming Jeffrey was autistic. I wonder if they ever knew that at the time as it would explain his obsessions with things if it's the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jammy Posted October 11, 2022 Share Posted October 11, 2022 Finished this yesterday night and thought it was largely excellent. Great performance from Evan Peters. My only slight niggle is that they sometimes seemed to try and push him as a sympathetic character which didn’t really feel right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
